Last Christmas Roon had a "sale": give someone a subscription for about 30% off (including lifetime, which made it a much better deal). It was supposed to be for "new" subscribers. But you could give yourself a subscription by setting up a Roon account (free) and an email address to send the subscription to. Check and see if they do it again near Christmas. They will, by the way, also allow you to "top off" a yearly subscription to a lifetime one if you decide to upgrade - you just pay the difference in price. GIK Acoustics Room Treatments.

I always thought that this was an issue of the apps. And unfortunately none of these app is further developed.

The thought occurred to me to try the same APPS on my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 Tablet, and neither APP experienced the issue. So the issue appears to be only on my Nexus-6 (with Marshmallow; possibly other devices, too). So I'll investigate that with the Applications developers. The good news is that this has an answer, and that there is no weirdness with the SqueezeBox account.

I also notice that the app-remotes -- while connected (before it disconnects) -- never show up in the PLAYER section of my MySqueezeBox.Com account. I forget whether remotes devices are listed there once registered, but I'm mentioning it just in case. I think something is happening where the app remotes are disconnecting from my account for some odd reason. I have to keep killing those app remotes and re-entering my username and password. And, again, this is happening with two completely different app remotes. It never happened before (they were 100% reliable), so it may be related to the new device on my account. Maybe something wasn't reset properly by tech support. nyceyes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48920 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105517 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] SqueezeBox Android Remote App disconnects from MySqueezeBox.Com SqueezeBox Touch ...
Hello Friends: I'm very familiar with SqueezeBox (Duet and Touch) having used them for years. After selling all of my SqueezeBox equipment (players and remotes), I recently decided to re-buy SB Touch. :) I, of course, called Logitech Tech Support to have the purchased device transferred to my personal MySqueezeBox.Com account. I gave them the email address associated with my account, and the MAC address of the player. I then set the player up and it works nicely. No pauses or gaps. _THE_PROBLEM_: I have two Android SqueezeBox remote apps which I have authenticated to my mySqueezeBox.Com account (username & password). The problem is that they connect for about 20 seconds, and then disconnect with a message indicating that there is no (Player) device connected to my SqueezeBox account; and yet there is! The SqueezeBox Touch player never stops playing and never disconnects. I never had problems with Andriod-based remotes in the past. So, is it possible that something associated with the MAC address wasn't cleared out? Something residual, lingering with either the MAC or with my account?

I had been following RP developments, and an RP3 with an IQAudio DAC and piCorePlayer became an irresistible experiment. I really like the results. To my ears, the sound is better than my old Logitech players. The hardware & software combination handles any file format in my library. I used the translucent "smoked grey" case that IQAudio sell, which I find aesthetically very pleasing. The pieces cost about the same as four Chromecast Audio dongles, but about half what what I paid for my Squeezebox Touch. For the audio quality and seamless integration with SBS, that still feels like a bargain. dysonapr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21534 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104383 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
